The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

I've had two of my children to attend Gilliard over the years. I can truly say the teachers are present and concerned with the well being of the students. They are easily accessible and easy to talk to. They give tools and resources of how to help your child at home if they are struggling academically. They are always have events and activities for the students to do through out the year. They have archery, broadcasting team, and other things for them to do.

My child has had the opportunity to gain experiences at Gilliard that he may not have if he was enrolled in a different school, such as archery, STEM, robotics, the gifted program, and other extracurricular activities. This school provides experiences for the community and the students.

This school denied my grandkids to participate in an Halloween party because of some school fees for late pick up that is personalized mental abuse and something needs to be done about this nonsense!
